Always seizing the opportunity to advocate for people in need, Anthony is a deeply committed attorney. His empathy and approachability make it easy for him to relate to his clients. Once he takes on a case, he does everything in his power to get the client the best results possible.
Anthony worked at one of the largest insurance companies in the country as its in-house staff counsel before working as a litigation supervisor for one of the Midwest’s largest personal injury firms. During his years defending corporate interests, he gained insight into how insurance companies evaluate and defend cases. He brings this knowledge with him to every personal injury case he works on, which allows him to easily anticipate and respond to any attempts made by the defense to escape accountability. This has proven effective in maximizing compensation for the victims of negligence.
Anthony grew up in a military family and has lived all over the world. He now calls Kansas City his home. When he isn’t advocating for his clients, he enjoys reading, playing tennis, and traveling with his family.
